OVERVIEW

Execution

In a country where 50% of car accidents are alcohol-related, Allianz decided to advise people at the critical moment: happy hour. Allianz used a hidden camera and a Led TV to create a custom mirror with a delayed reflection effect, strategically placing it in a bar’s most frequented room: the restroom. Costumers invariably looked in the mirror and were surprised by their delayed reflection. A straightforward but hard-hitting message was then displayed on the mirror: “This is how slow your reflexes are after only a few drinks. Our Advice: Don’t drink and drive.” All bar goers were confronted with the risk of drunk driving by taking a good look at themselves. The Drunk Mirror video was released on Brazilian Traffic Safety Day and got more than 1 million views in 2 weeks. It's the most shared Allianz video in history and made this top of mind on blogs, news websites, and TV
